Yup. And this licence is about the users.

Think of "parties to the action". This is a good licence because it doesn't try to give a 3rd-party rights. If I buy Office software and use it to create documents, the copyright holder is NOT a party to my creating documents. They shouldn't have any rights over said documents.

Aiui, this licence says "people *using* the software are parties to the action. They have rights". It may require the copyright holders to enforce the rights on behalf of the users, sadly, but the thing is the user has the right.

Cheers,
Wol
